U S Tankmen See Sheridan Problems Yet Confidence Grows
American tank commanders in Vietnam acknowledge major Sheridan issues such as a faulty electrical firing system and shell instability but say none are unsolvable. They report maintenance guides, fuel-leak fixes, and overall increased combat capability with the new 16 ton tanks. Some critics claim 20 pages of restrictions, but commanders say such limits are routine for new weapons. Col. George S. Patton Jr. defends the Sheridan as no more defective than any new system and notes its success in recent engagements.
